Old Cowboy Tuesday seeped into Wednesday with a visit from the over seeing Nurse from the Hospice Mothership in Albuquerque.  Checking up,  kind of a quality control visit.   And we "passed".  I am always a little ify about whether or not OCB really qualifies.  I am so used to him and he seems the same to me with just an incremental loss.  But we were good and OK and i am grateFULL l and i say that.  I am Grateful.  Thank You so much and it's ok.

But, still, time.

taking this slow.  I didn't have a full piece of tea dye Harem Cloth.  Just scraps.  so i pieced them together on the Backgound Cloth first.  Never did this before but it was extremely satisfying.  Once done,  the harem cloth to the background cloth,  i invisible basted this "front",,,,,,this STORY on.  Again.  Very satisfying.  Yes.  It's telling a story.  It's telling …me…a story.  It's a story that i don't even know yet.   Soft,  slitty eyed eeee  kind of thing and yes and ok.  So, Tell me.

And after all the references to    The Faraway Nearby     Rebecca Solnit    from Mo

i finally Have it.  And it is not disappointing.  She WRITES.   I read.  and i think about how these Cloths are efforts to speak Story.

    Story how does it change when it is cloth that speaks vs the immediacy of words, something I think about now and then since I have been “talking story” as the Hawaiians say, through cloth…

    Yes, the story slips out bit by bit. I know the process of waiting for the cloth to speak and maybe sing.
